PTSDs existence. But if I have to choose... The non-stop adrenaline rush (thanks to a cocktail of ptsd meds, it's gone down tremendously) Not being functional at all The constant reminder that my parents are sociopaths who have never loved me and never will Not being able to work because...

Oh I've felt that way for a long long long time. My parents taught me they don't love me and never will, and they thought I should hate myself because they hated me. I have disabling PTSD now. I guess you just learn to become satisfied with the little things after a while. The buddhist...
